Gm7 arpeggio & chord for gypsy jazz

The Gm7 arpeggio is built from the notes G (R), B♭ (♭3), D (5), F (♭7). On Haute Gitanerie you can see it across the whole guitar neck — contained position boxes, long diagonal forms, and its parent scale (G Dorian) — with note names in English (C D E) or solfège (Do Ré Mi).

How to practise the Gm7 arpeggio

Start with a contained position box near the low strings, then move it up the neck fret by fret, or follow a diagonal form for a two-octave sweep in the manouche style. Every note is labelled with its interval (R, ♭3, 5, ♭7), so you always know where the root, third, fifth sit.
